In this reteaming of actor
Antonio Banderas and director
Robert Rodriguez -- their first film together since the 1995 feature
Desperado -- Banderas plays Gregorio; he and devoted partner Ingrid (
Carla Gugino), comprise the greatest pair of secret agents working. Both are masters of disguise and have the ability to prevent wars, but eventually they want to settle down and begin raising a family. Nine years later, after retiring and giving up the lives of super-spies, Gregorio and Ingrid find themselves at the call of duty again when techno-genius Fegan Floop (
Alan Cumming) and his insidious, ruthless sidekick Minion (
Tony Shalhoub) have plans for world destruction. The only hope for Gregorio and Ingrid are their children, Carmen (
Alexa Vega) and Juni (
Daryl Sabara), who are called upon to save their missing parents, eventually learning their former identities. The film also features
Cheech Marin,
Robert Patrick, and
Danny Trejo. In the summer of 2001, five months after
Spy Kids had become a major box office success, an expanded edition was released, featuring several minutes of footage not used in the film's original cuts (including special effects sequences that couldn't be completed within the film's original budget).
